Beckham, Shalala, Garber Meeting To Talk Stadium Partnership

Sources said that David Beckham, outgoing Univ. of Miami President Donna Shalala and MLS Commissioner Don Garber are scheduled to meet today in Miami "about possibly partnering on a football-soccer stadium." Shalala "would favor a 40,000- to 44,000-seat venue, which would be larger than the 25,000- to 30,000-seat stadium MLS officials prefer but probably a size the league could live with." UM has 17 years remaining on its Sun Life Stadium lease, and any site would have to "satisfy both sides and sit well with city and county officials" (MIAMI HERALD, 5/22).
